Firebase being blocked by Romania ISPs

We are currently seeing issues with Romanian users being unable to connect to CAM4 services. This is due to certain Internet service providers blocking some Google services which we and many other sites rely on to operate streams and chat. 
We are currently working together with Google on resolving this problem but cannot estimate when this will be resolved at this time. 
We of course still want you to be able to use CAM4 during this time and you can do so by either:

Using a VPN

Connecting from outside Romania by using a VPN. This is the simplest way to circumvent all restrictions and it adds an extra layer of security to your connection.

The VPN options that we recommend for Romanian users are:

  • ProtonVPN

  • PrivadoVPN

Contacting your ISP

You can request to your internet service provider (ISP) that they remove the restriction. This may not be an immediate resolution and the ISP may refuse but we have seen instances of this being resolved with some ISPs upon users making a complaint. If you choose to do this, please give your ISP the following message: 

“Buna ziua,

Recent aparut o problema in cadrul retelei care nu imi permite sa ma conectez la s-usc1c-nss-280.firebaseio.com care are adresa 35.201.97.85.

Mentionez ca s-usc1c-nss-280.firebaseio.com care are adresa 35.201.97.85, este parte din serviciul Google Firebase care pare sa fie blocat. 

Va rog sa deblocati acest serviciu cat se poate de repede.

Multumesc”
